Hi. I'm new to 43oh. My team is building a platform for the breadboard for software developers. It allows you to configure prototypes without wires or other components.
How?
Connect the controller board to your breadboard and PC. Connect channels to IO pins in the user interface.
The user interface will interact with the hardware and implement your configuration on a breadboard via a programmable switch matrix, thereby replacing wires.
Then, if you want the user interface to interact with the ADC onboard the controller board:
Connect the GPIO channel to the ADC channel on the same IO pin. Set the ADC channel on.
Then you can analyse the signal, as shown here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtL6YwalWnk
There is also an interface on the controller board for custom shields, which can replace other components, such as higher precision ADC, a DAC, a MIDI controller, an SoC, wifi adapter or an FPGA. This feature is still in development.
Tell what you think about this tool kit.
You can follow this project at https://hackaday.io/project/18755-the-metaboard to get updated as we prepare for a crowdfunded manufacturing run.

Hello
Can someone please walk me through a suitable MCU for AIC3254/AIC3253 audio codec?
From the codec's eval kit, a controller with 32kB mem with I2C/SPI is enough.
Is MSP430G2744 suitable? It has 1kB RAM, 32kB flash, 16MHz and 1 I2C, SPI each.
The codec would not be used for digital audio. Preferring to keep it simple.
One more thing. Since there isn't much of know-how on this from my end, I would prefer outsourcing the development. Generally speaking, what should I know before committing someone to take the task?
Like 1) Would I also require a separate compiler/development board for the MCU, which would then get later soldered to the codec PCB? Or I can straight way use USB connection on the codec PCB to a PC and then initialize the MCU from their for the first time. And then obviously, download the codec code from Purepath.
Please help before I start talking to a developer.
Thanks.
